Quotes 

• Buffy Summers : Are you okay? Did she hurt you?

  Dawn Summers : Why do you care?

  Buffy Summers : Because I love you. You're my sister.

  Dawn Summers : No I'm not.

  Buffy Summers : Yes, you are. Look, it's blood. It's Summers blood... It's just like mine. Doesn't matter where you came from or-or how you got here. You are my sister... There's no way you could annoy me so much if you weren't.

• Spike : Oh, yeah. Here it comes. Something goes wrong in your life, blame Spike. News flash, Blondie. If kid sis wants to grab a midnight stroll, she'll find a way sooner or later. I just thought she'd be safer with Big Bad lookin' over her shoulder.

  Buffy Summers : She shouldn't have found out like that.

  Spike : You didn't think you could keep the truth from her forever, did you? Maybe if *you* had been more honest with her in the first place, you wouldn't be trying to make yourself feel better with a round of "Kick The Spike."

• Dawn Summers : I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you. That is the case, right...?

  Buffy Summers : Glory is evil, and powerful, and in no way prettier than me.

• Buffy Summers : Look, if-if Glory knew that you guys knew where it was I... I-I just didn't want to put you in that kind of danger.

  Xander Harris : As opposed to the other kind we're always in?

• Buffy Summers : How was school today?

  Dawn Summers : Um, the usual. Big square building filled with boredom and despair.

  Buffy Summers : Just how I remember it.

• [Dawn appears in the living room, dazed, with her arms outstretched and covered in blood] 

  Dawn Summers : Is this blood?

  Buffy Summers : Dawn!

  Joyce Summers : Oh, baby!

  Buffy Summers : What did you do?

  Dawn Summers : This is blood, isn't it? It can't be me. I'm not a key. I'm not a thing.

  Joyce Summers : Oh, Sweetie, no. Wha-what is this all about?

  Dawn Summers : What am I?

  [starting to cry] 

  Dawn Summers : Am I real? Am I anything?

• Buffy Summers : What did you do to her?

  Willow Rosenberg : Teleportation spell. Still working out the kinks.

  Buffy Summers : Where'd you send her?

  Willow Rosenberg : Don't know. That's one of the kinks.

• Dawn Summers : They were talking about me, just like everybody is.

  Xander Harris : Again, not so much. In fact, none.

  Anya : We were talking about sex. I mean, you know us. Sometimes we like to pretend stuff.

  Joyce Summers : Um...

  Xander Harris : Anya.

  Anya : You know, like, say there's a fireman, or a shepherd...

  Buffy Summers : You know what? Let's not have this exchange of images right now.

• [Buffy's getting lots of presents] 

  Buffy Summers : Prezzies!

  Willow Rosenberg : See? Just what you needed.

  Buffy Summers : You are very, very wise. Now gimme, gimme, gimme!

• [last lines] 

  Buffy Summers : I have to get you back home now. Mom's freaking out.

  Dawn Summers : Oh. Is she mad about the whole fire thing?

  Buffy Summers : I think you sort of have a "get out of jail free" card on account of big love and trauma

  Dawn Summers : Really...? Okay...? Good.

  [walking out] 

  Dawn Summers : You think she'd raise my allowance?

  Buffy Summers : Don't push it.

• [first lines] 

  Buffy Summers : Look, I know Mom wants to gather and make with the merry tomorrow night, but with everything that's going on...

  Willow Rosenberg : This is exactly what you need, a 20th birthday party with-with-with presents and funny hats and-and those candles that don't blow out.

  [to Tara] 

  Willow Rosenberg : those used to scare me.

  Tara Maclay : Me too.

  Buffy Summers : I just don't think this is the best time to break out the party pinata. We need to stay focused if we're gonna find a way to stop Glory.

• Glory : Hey, we were just talking about you.

  Buffy Summers : Conversation's over, Hell-bitch.
